They can say it included a highly toxic chemical. Whether or not it's used in rocket fuel is completely irrelevant.

They could say that, but a primary use for hydrazine is rocket fuel, so I'm not sure why I should find the headline outrageous.

Because we're not talking about making rockets - we're talking about water.
